  Speaker 1: Welcome to this sleep story from Abide a Bible meditation
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: to help you relax, release your worries, and fall asleep.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: When you think of what it means to store up
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: treasure in heaven, it might feel like an elusive thought,
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: something that is distant and out of reach. Yet storing
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: up treasure on earth is something most of us strive
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: for and spend years of our life trying to achieve. However,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: the pressures of building earthly treasures can become overwhelming. We
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: feel pressure to make more money, get a better job,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: and build notable lives. Worries about our jobs, finances, and
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: the future try to consume us. That's why we need
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: to hear the promises of God every day and receive
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: his direction. We need to turn our affections to what
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: it means to store up treasure in heaven. This will
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: be our focus tonight, storing up treasures in heaven as
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: we hear encouraging words from the scriptures and receive comfort
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: in knowing that storing up treasure in heaven far surpasses
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: our bank accounts on Earth. Rest on that statement for
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: a moment. Storing up treasure in heaven far surpasses our
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: bank accounts on earth. Before we begin our Bible meditation,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Please remove any distractions, get comfortable, pull the soft covers
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: around you, and simply rest. Allow your breathing to become
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: soft and steady. Start with a deep breath in and
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: slowly exhale. Feel your breath fall into a steady cadence
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: of peace. Let's pray. Dear God, we invite you here
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: tonight to fill the room with your presence. We do
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: not take this invitation lightly, Lord, but instead we humble
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: ourselves as you inhabit this room. Without you, Oh Lord,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: we are empty. No amount of money, resources, talent, or
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: treasure can fill us up. We are nothing without you. Please, Lord,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: speak through the dreams of this listener tonight and point
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: them Heaven. Word in Christ Jesus, beyond the pressures of life.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Lift their thoughts to the highest of heights, the place
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: where you dwell Heaven. We commit this sleep meditation to
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: you and ask for your continued guidance throughout the night.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Thank you Father for being faithful through the night watches
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: and into the start of a new day. And you
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: we put our trust, our hope, and our peace in
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: the precious name of Jesus. Amen. Matthew recorded these beloved
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: words of Jesus in Chapter six, verses nineteen through twenty one.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: in and steal. Where your treasure is there your heart
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: will be also. Let this passage sink deep into your heart, mind,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: and soul. Tonight, breathe in slowly and exhale. Feel the
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: presence of the Holy Spirit in the room. How comforting
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: it is to be in his presence. Every worry and
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: concern falls away when God is moving and active in
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: our lives. Remain in his presence now. Jesus was clear
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: when he said, do not lay up for yourselves treasures
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: on earth. This command is easier said than done. But
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: it is possible, my friend, for with God, all things
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: are possible. Rest assured in the possibilities that lay before
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: you in Jesus name, breathe deeply of God's guidance as
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: he leads you to build up treasures in heaven, treasures
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: of love, joy, goodness, kindness, and peace. For these holy
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: treasures bring us the deepest contentment feel the contentment God's
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: holiness brings. The love we have for our family and
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: friends is a beautiful treasure. The joy we experience in
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: the beauty of God's creation is a priceless experience. The
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: goodness and kindness that builds others up is equal to
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: store houses of treasure. The peace that God gives us
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: is more precious than silver or gold. These godly attributes
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: are heavenly treasures we can gather as often as we want.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: They are not limited to time, money, or any earthly pursuit.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: They are freely given and freely received. Building up storehouses

  Speaker 1: of treasure in heaven. For where your treasure is there,

  Speaker 1: your heart may be also Align your heart with God's heart. Tonight,

  Speaker 1: let your heart cry be that of David's. From Psalm
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: fifty one, verse ten. Create in me a pure heart,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Purity
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: of heart, a steadfast spirit treasures in heaven. Allow these

  Speaker 1: you are our delight and a world that is full
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: of quick fixes and instant gratifications, you are our constant

  Speaker 1: source of joy. Please remind us of this when we
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: strive to store treasures on earth, make more money, and

  Speaker 1: Graham who once wrote, in the midst of sorrow and trouble,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: this life has many blessings and enjoyments which have come
• 9:20

  Speaker 1: giving back to him a part of that which He
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: has given to us. Blessings, enjoyment, and even our capacity
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: for love are God's gifts to us. His gifts are
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: so lavish, there is plenty to share. We can give

  Speaker 1: gold can't compare. Saints will be there to join us

  Speaker 1: in a joyful reunion. We'll see there's a treasure in

  Speaker 1: surpasses our bank accounts on earth. Rest on that statement
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: for a moment. Storing up treasure in heaven far surpasses
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: our bank accounts on Earth. Before we begin our Bible meditations,
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: please remove any distractions, get comfortable, pull the soft covers
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: around you, and simply rest. Allow your breathing to become
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: soft and steady. Start with a deep breath in and
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: slowly exhale. Fill your breath fall into a steady cadence
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: of peace. Let's pray. Dear God, we invite you here
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: tonight to fill the room with your presence. We do
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: not take this invitation lightly, Lord, but instead we humble
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: ourselves as you inhabit this room. Without you, Oh Lord,
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: we are empty. No amount of money, resources, talent, or
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: treasure can fill us up. We are nothing without you. Please, Lord,
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: speak through the dreams of this listener tonight and point
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: them Heaven word in Christ Jesus, beyond the pressures of life.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Lift their thoughts to the highest of heights, the place
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: where you dwell Heaven. We commit this sleep meditation to
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: you and ask for your continued guidance throughout the night.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Thank you Father for being faithful through the night watches
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: and into the start of a new day. And you
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: we put our trust, our hope, and our peace in
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: the precious name of Jesus. Amen Matthew recorded these beloved
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: words of Jesus in Chapter six, verses nineteen through twenty one.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steel.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: in and steel. Where your treasure is there your heart
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: will be also. Let this passage sink deep into your heart, mind,
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: and soul. To night, breathe in slowly and exhale. Feel
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: the presence of the Holy Spirit in the room. How
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: comforting it is to be in his presence. Every worry
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: and concern falls away when God is moving and active
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: in our lives. Remain in his presence. Now, Jesus was
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: clear when he said, do not lay up for yourselves
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: treasures on earth. This command is easier said than done.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: But it is possible, my friend, For with God all
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: things are possible. Rest assured in the possibilities that lay
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: before you in Jesus name, breathe deeply of God's guidance
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: as he leads you to build up treasures in heaven,
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: treasures of love, joy, goodness, kindness, and peace. For these
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: holy treasures bring us the deepest contentment. Feel the contentment
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: God's holiness brings. The love we have for our family
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: and friends is a beautiful treasure. The joy we experience
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: in the beauty of God's creation is a priceless experience.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: The goodness and kindness that builds others up is equal
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: to storehouses of treasure. The peace that God gives us
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: is more precious than silver or gold. These godly attributes
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: are heavenly treasures we can gather as often as we want.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: They are not limited to time, money, or any earthly pursuit.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: They are freely given and freely received. Building up storehouses
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: of treasure and heaven. For where your treasure is there
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: your heart may be. Also align your heart with God's heart. Tonight,
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: let your heart cry be that of David's. From Psalm
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: fifty one, verse ten. Create in me a pure heart,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Purity
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: of heart, a steadfast spirit, treasures in heaven. Allow these
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: to be your heart's petition before God. Tonight. Release all
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: earthly affections from money and increase. For the steps of
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: a man are established by the Lord. When he delights
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: in his way. You are established in God. Remain in
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: the sure foundation of Jesus Christ. He delights in you
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: when you abide in Him. Abide in the true vine.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: Your steps are guided by a loving father. Hear his
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: voice say this is the way. Walk in it. Delight
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: in the place in which the Lord has established you. Tonight,
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Heavenly Father, you are our delight in a world that
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: is full of quick fixes and instant gratifications. You are
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: our constant source of joy. Please remind us of this
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: when we strive to store treasures on earth, make more money,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: and fill our lives with superficial peace. Remind us that
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: where our treasure is, their heart is also. Forgive us,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: Lord for seeking other ways to bring happiness. Show us
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: what it means to have true joy, the joy that
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: comes from the fruit of your spirit. Please, Lord, cover
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: this beloved child with the assurance that you are their
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: peace and provision. They can fully depend on you in
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: Jesus' name. Amen. In your job, you can depend on Jesus.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: In your relationships, depend on Jesus. And your home. You
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: can depend on Jesus. Rust deeply in your dependency on him. Tonight,
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: in and steal. For where your treasure is there, your
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: heart will be also. It was the Reverend Billy Graham
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: who once wrote, in the midst of sorrow and trouble,
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: this life has many blessings and enjoyments which have come
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: from the hand of God. Even our capacity for love
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: is a gift from God. We show our gratitude by
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: giving back to Him a part of that which He
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: has given to us. Blessings, enjoyment, and even our capacity
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: for love are God's gifts to us. His gifts are
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: so lavish, there is plenty to share. We can give
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: back to Him, and we can pass to blessing on
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: to others. From his overflow of love, you extend that
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: love to others. From his extraordinary piece, you can display
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: that peace in your home and workplace. From his abundant joy,
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: you can radiate joy to everyone around you. These are
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: the beautiful treasures you build in heaven. Feel joy in
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: the abundance of your heavenly treasures. Now, there's an old
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: song titled There's a Treasure in Heaven. A portion of
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: the lyrics go like this, There's a treasure in heaven,
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: faithfully kept in God's care. Bridges beyond measure, silver and
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: gold can't compare. Saints will be there to join us
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: in a joyful reunion. We'll see there's a treasure in
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: heaven waiting there for me. Holy God, creator of heaven
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: and Earth, please cover this beloved child with peace. Lead
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: them from one pleasant dream to another, dreams of heavenly treasures.
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: Overflow them with your loving kindness, your goodness, and your
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: faithful provision. For in you we have everything we need.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Bless this listener, Lord, Bless them, Keep them and guard them.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: Show them the abundant blessings found in you. Spur the
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: truth in their ear and say to them, this is
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: the way you should go. We trust you Lord above
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: all earthly gain. We want to build beautiful treasures in heaven.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: We want our lives to fill heavenly storehouses with overflowing
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: treasures of love, joy, goodness, and kindness. For your word
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: says against such things, there is no law. We love you, Lord.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: We look to you to provide just what we need
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: for life and for eternity. Thank you, We praise you
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: for being our ultimate treasure in heaven, our light and
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: our salvation. It is in the precious name of Jesus,
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: I pray Amen. When you think of what it means
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: to store up treasure in heaven, it might feel like
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: an elusive thought, something that is distant and out of reach.
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: Yet storing up treasure on earth is something most of
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: us strive for and spend years of our life trying
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: to achieve. However, the pressures of building earthly treasures can
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: become overwhelming. We feel pressure to make more money, get
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: a better job, and build notable lives. Worries about our jobs, finances,
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: and the future try to consume us. That's why we
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: need to hear the promises of God every day and
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: receive his direction. We need to turn our affections to
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: what it means to store up treasure in heaven. This
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: will be our focus tonight, storing up treasures in heaven
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: as we hear encouraging words from the scriptures and receive
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: comfort in knowing that storing up treasure in heaven far
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: surpasses our bank account on Earth. Rest on that statement
• 38:03

  Speaker 1: Lift their thoughts to the highest of heights, the place

  Speaker 1: you and ask for your continued guidance throughout the night.

  Speaker 1: Thank you Father for being faithful through the night watches

  Speaker 1: we put our trust, our hope, and our peace in

  Speaker 1: words of Jesus in Chapter six, verses nineteen through twenty one.
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break

  Speaker 1: in and steal. Where your treasure is there your heart

  Speaker 1: will be also. Let this passage sink deep into your heart, mind,

  Speaker 1: concern falls away when God is moving and active in

  Speaker 1: our lives. Remain in His presence Now, Jesus was clear
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: when he said, do not lay up for yourselves treasures
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: on earth. This command is easier said than done. But
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: it is possible, my friend, For with God all things

  Speaker 1: are possible. Rest assured in the possibilities that lay before

  Speaker 1: he leads you to build up treasures in heaven, treasures

  Speaker 1: are heavenly treasures we can gather as often as we want.

• 54:51
  Speaker 1: They are freely given and freely received. Building up storehouses
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: of treasure and heaven. For where your treasure is there
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: your heart may be. Also align your heart with God's heart. Tonight,
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: let your heart cry be that of David's. From Psalm
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: fifty one, verse ten. Create in me a pure heart,
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Purity
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: of heart, a steadfast spirit, treasures in heaven. Allow these

  Speaker 1: to be your heart's petition before God. Tonight. Release all

  Speaker 1: is full of quick fixes and instant gratifications, you are

  Speaker 1: our constant source of joy. Please remind us of this
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: when we strive to store treasures on earth, make more money,
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: and fill our lives with superficial peace. Remind us that
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: where our treasure is, their heart is also. Forgive us,
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: Lord for seeking other ways to bring happiness. Show us
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: what it means to have true joy, the joy that

  Speaker 1: You can depend on Jesus. Rust deeply in your dependency
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: on him. Tonight, do not lay up for yourselves treasures
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: break in and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: thieves do not break in and steal. For where your
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: treasure is, your heart will be also. It was the
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: Reverend Billy Graham who once wrote, in the midst of
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: sorrow and trouble, this life has many blessings and enjoyments
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: which have come from the hand of God. Even our
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: capacity for love is a gift from God. We show
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: our gratitude by giving back to him a part of
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: that which He has given to us. Blessings, enjoyment, and
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: even our capacity for love are God's gifts to us.
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: His gifts are so lavish. There is plenty to share.
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: We can give back to him, and we can pass
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: to blessing on to others. From his overflow of love,
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: you extend that love to others. From his extraordinary peace,
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: you can display that peace in your home and workplace.
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: From his abundant joy, you can radiate joy to everyone
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: around you. These are the beautiful treasures you build in heaven.
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: Feel joy in the abundance of your heavenly treasures. Now,
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: there's an old song titled There's a Treasure in Heaven.
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: A portion of the lyrics go like this, There's a
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: treasure in heaven, faithfully kept in God's care. Bridges beyond measure,
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: silver and gold can't compare. Saints will be there to
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: join us in a joyful reunion. We'll see there's a
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: treasure in heaven waiting there for me. Holy God, creator
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: of heaven and Earth, please cover this beloved child with peace.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: Lead them from one pleasant dream to another, dreams of
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: heavenly treasures. Overflow them with your loving kindness, your goodness,
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: and your faithful provision. For in you we have everything
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: we need. Bless this listener, Lord, Bless them, keep them
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: and guard them. Show them the abundant blessings found in you.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: Whisper the truth in their ear, and say to them,
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: this is the way you should go. We trust you Lord,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: above all earthly gain. We want to build beautiful treasures
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: in heaven. We want our lives to fill heavenly storehouses
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: with overflowing treasures of love, joy, goodness, and kindness. For
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: your word says against such things, there is no law.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: We love you, Lord. We look to you to provide
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: just what we need for life and for eternity. Thank you,
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: We praise you for being our ultimate treasure in heaven,
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: our light and our salvation. It is in the precious
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: name of Jesus, I pray Amen. When you think of
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: what it means to store up treasure in heaven, it
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: might feel like an elusive thought, something that is distant
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: and out of reach. Yet storing up treasure on earth
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: is something most of us strive for and spend years
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: of our life trying to achieve. However, the pressures of
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: building earthly treasures can become overwhelming. We feel pressure to
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: make more money, get a better job, and build notable lives.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: Worries about our jobs, finances, and the future try to
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: consume us. That's why we need to hear the promises
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: of God every day and receive his direction. We need
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: to turn our affections to what it means to store
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: up treasure in heaven. This will be our focus tonight,
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: storing up treasures in heaven as we hear encouraging words
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: from the scriptures and receive comfort in knowing that storing
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: up treasure in heaven far surpasses our bank accounts on earth.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: Rest on that statement for a moment. Storing up treasure
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: in heaven far surpasses our bank accounts on Earth. Before
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: we begin our Bible meditation, please remove any distractions, get comfortable,
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: pull the soft covers around you, and simply rest. Allow
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: your breathing to become soft and steady. Start with a
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: deep breath in and slowly exhale. Fill your breath fall
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: into a steady cadence of peace. Let's pray. Dear God,
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: we invite you here tonight to fill the room with
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: your presence. We do not take this invitation lightly. Lord
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: but instead we humble ourselves as you inhabit this room.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: Without you, Oh Lord, we are empty. No amount of money, resources, talent,
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: or treasure can fill us up. We are nothing without you. Please, Lord,
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: speak through the dreams of this listener tonight and point
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: them heavenward in Christ Jesus, beyond the pressures of life.

  Speaker 1: and concern falls away when God is moving and active

• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: you and ask for your continued guidance throughout the night.
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 1: Thank you Father for being faithful through the night watches
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: and into the start of a new day. And you
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: we put our trust, our hope, and our peace in
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: the precious name of Jesus. Amen. Matthew recorded these beloved
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: words of Jesus in Chapter six, verses nineteen through twenty one.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 1: Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 1: moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal,
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 1: in and steal. Where your treasure is there, your heart
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 1: will be also. Let this passage sink deep into your heart, mind,
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: and soul. To night, breathe in slowly and exhale. Feel
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 1: the presence of the Holy Spirit in the room. How
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: comforting it is to be in his presence. Every worry
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: and concern falls away when God is moving and active
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 1: in our lives. Remain in his presence now. Jesus was
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: clear when he said, do not lay up for yourselves
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 1: treasures on earth. This command is easier said than done.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: But it is possible, my friend, For with God, all
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 1: things are possible. Rest assured in the possibilities that lay
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: before you in Jesus name, Breathe deeply of God's guidance
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 1: as he leads you to build up treasures in heaven,
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 1: treasures of love, joy, goodness, kindness, and peace. For these
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 1: holy treasures bring us the deepest contentment. Feel the contentment
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: God's holiness brings. The love we have for our family
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: and friends is a beautiful treasure. The joy we experience
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 1: in the beauty of God's creation is a priceless experience.
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: The goodness and kindness that builds others up is equal
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: to store houses of treasure. The peace that God gives
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: us is more precious than silver or gold. These godly
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: attributes are heavenly treasures we can gather as often as
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: we want. They are not limited to time, money, or
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 1: any earthly pursuit. They are freely given and freely received.
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 1: Building up storehouses of treasure in heaven. For where your
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 1: treasure is there your heart may be. Also align your
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: heart with God's heart. Tonight, let your heart cry be
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 1: that of David's. From Psalm fifty one, verse ten. Create
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: steadfast spirit within me. Purity of heart, a steadfast spirit,
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: treasures in heaven to be your heart's petition before God. Tonight,
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: release all earthly affections for money and increase. For the
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 1: steps of a man are established by the Lord. When
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: he delights in his way. You are established in God.
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: Remain in the sure foundation of Jesus Christ. He delights
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 1: in you when you abide in Him. Abide in the
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: true vine. Your steps are guided by a loving father.
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: Hear his voice say this is the way. Walk in it.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 1: Delight in the place in which the Lord has established you. Tonight,
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 1: Heavenly Father, you are our delight in a world that
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: is full of quick fixes and instant gratifications. You are
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 1: our concert and source of joy. Please remind us of
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: this when we strive to store treasures on earth, make
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 1: more money, and fill our lives with superficial peace. Remind
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: us that where our treasure is, their heart is also.
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 1: Forgive us, Lord for seeking other ways to bring happiness.
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 1: Show us what it means to have true joy, the
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: joy that comes from the fruit of your spirit. Please, Lord,
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: cover this beloved child with the assurance that you are
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: their peace and provision. They can fully depend on you
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: in Jesus' name, Amen, in your job, you can depend
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: on Jesus in your relationships. You can depend on Jesus
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: in your home. You can depend on Jesus. Rust deeply
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 1: in your dependency on him. Tonight, do not lay up
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy,
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: and where thieves break in and steal. But lay up
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys,
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 1: and where thieves do not break in and steal. For
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 1: where your treasure is there, your heart will be also
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: it was the Reverend Billy Graham, who once wrote in
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: the midst of sorrow and trouble, this life has many
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: blessings and enjoyments which have come from the hand of God.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 1: Even our capacity for love is a gift from God.
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 1: We show our gratitude by giving back to Him a
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 1: part of that which He has given to us. Blessings, enjoyment,
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 1: and even our capacity for love are God's gifts to us.
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 1: His gifts are so lavish, there is plenty to share.
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: We can give back to Him, and we can pass
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 1: to blessing on to others. From his overflow of love,
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 1: you extend that love to others. From his extraordinary piece,
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 1: you can display that peace in your home and workplace.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: From his abundant joy, you can radiate joy to everyone
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 1: around you. These are the beautiful treasures you build in heaven.
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 1: Feel joy in the abundance of your heavenly treasures. Now
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 1: there's an old song titled There's a Treasure in Heaven.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 1: A portion of the lyrics go like this, There's a
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 1: treasure in heaven. Faithfully in God's care, bridges beyond measure,
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 1: silver and gold can't compare. Saints will be there to
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 1: join us in a joyful reunion. We'll see there's a
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 1: treasure in heaven waiting there for me. Holy God, creator
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 1: of heaven and Earth, Please cover this beloved child with peace.
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: Lead them from one pleasant dream to another, dreams of
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 1: heavenly treasures. Overflow them with your loving kindness, your goodness,
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 1: and your faithful provision. For in you we have everything
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 1: we need. Bless this listener, Lord, Bless them, Keep them
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 1: and guard them. Show them the abundant blessings found in you.
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 1: Whisper the truth in their ear, and say to them,
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 1: this is the way you should go. We trust you, Lord,
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 1: above all earthly gain. We want to build beautiful treasures
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: in heaven. We want our lives to fill heavenly storehouses
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: with overflowing treasures of love, joy, goodness, and kindness. For
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 1: your word says against such things, there is no law.
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 1: We love you, Lord. We look to you to provide
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 1: just what we need for life and for eternity. Thank you,
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 1: We praise you for being our ultimate treasure in heaven,
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 1: our light and our salvation. It is in the precious
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 1: name of Jesus, I pray Amen. When you think of
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 1: what it means to store up treasure in heaven. It
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 1: might feel like an elusive thought, something that is distant
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 1: and out of reach. Yet storing up treasure on earth
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 1: is something most of us strive for and spend years
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 1: of our life trying to achieve. However, the pressures of
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 1: building earthly treasures can become overwhelming. We feel pressure to
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 1: make more money, get a better job, and build notable lives.
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: Worries about our jobs, finances, and the future try to
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 1: consume us. That's why we need to hear the promises
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 1: of God every day and receive his direction. We need
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 1: to turn our affections to what it means to store
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 1: up treasure in heaven. This will be our focus tonight,
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: storing up treasures in heaven as we hear encouraging words
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 1: from the scriptures and receive comfort in knowing that storing
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: up treasure in heaven far surpasses our bank accounts on earth.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 1: Rest on that statement for a moment, Browing up treasure
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 1: in heaven far surpasses our bank accounts on earth. Before
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 1: we begin our Bible meditation, please remove any distractions, get comfortable,
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 1: pull the soft covers around you, and simply rest. Allow
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 1: your breathing to become soft and steady. Start with a
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 1: deep breath in and slowly exhale. Fill your breath fall
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 1: into a steady cadence of peace. Let's pray. Dear God,
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 1: we invite you here tonight to fill the room with
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 1: your presence. We do not take this invitation lightly, Lord,
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 1: but instead we humble ourselves as you inhabit this room.
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 1: Without you, Oh Lord, we are empty. No amount of money, resources, talent,
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 1: or treasure can fill us up. We are nothing without you. Please, Lord,
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 1: speak through the dreams of this listener tonight and point
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 1: them heaven. Word in Christ Jesus, beyond the pressures of life,

  Speaker 1: or treasure can fill us up. We are nothing without you. Please, Lord,
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 1: speak through the dreams of this listener tonight and point
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 1: them heavenward in Christ Jesus, beyond the pressures of life.
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 1: Lift their thoughts to the highest of heights, the place
• 1:40:40
  Speaker 1: where you dwell, Heaven. We commit this sleep meditation to
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 1: you and ask for your continued guidance throughout the night.
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 1: Thank you Father for being faithful through the night watches
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 1: and into the start of a new day. And you
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 1: we put out our trust, our hope, and our peace
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 1: in the precious name of Jesus. Amen Matthew recorded these
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 1: beloved words of Jesus in Chapter six, verses nineteen through
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 1: twenty one. Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth,
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 1: where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 1: and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven,
• 1:41:31
  Speaker 1: where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 1: not break in and steal. Where your treasure is there,
• 1:41:41
  Speaker 1: your heart will be also. Let this passage sink deep
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 1: into your heart, mind, and soul. Tonight, breathe in slowly
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 1: and exhale. Feel the present of the Holy Spirit in
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 1: the room. How comforting it is to be in his presence.
• 1:42:07
  Speaker 1: Every worry and concern falls away when God is moving
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 1: and active in our lives. Remain in his presence now.
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 1: Jesus was clear when he said, do not lay up
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 1: for yourselves treasures on earth. This command is easier said
• 1:42:29
  Speaker 1: than done. But it is possible, my friend, For with
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 1: God all things are possible. Rest assured in the possibilities
• 1:42:41
  Speaker 1: that lay before you. In Jesus' name, Breathe deeply of

  Speaker 1: God's guidance as he leads you to build up treasures

  Speaker 1: we experience in the beauty of God's creation is a
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 1: priceless experience. The goodness and kindness that builds others up
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 1: is equal to storehouses of treasure. The peace that God
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 1: gives us is more precious than silver or gold. These
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 1: godly attributes are heavenly treasures we can gather as often
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 1: as we want. They are not limited to time, money,

  Speaker 1: or any earthly pursuit. They are freely given and freely received.

• 1:44:14
  Speaker 1: me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast

  Speaker 1: spirit within me. Purity of heart, a steadfast spirit treasures

  Speaker 1: in heaven. Allow these to be your heart's petition before

  Speaker 1: loving father. Hear his voice say this is the way.
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 1: Walk in it. Delight in the place in which the
• 1:45:12
  Speaker 1: Lord has established you. Tonight, Heavenly Father, you are our
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 1: delight and a world that is full of quick fixes
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 1: and instant gratifications, you are our constant source of joy.
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 1: Please remind us of this when we strive to store
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 1: treasures on earth, make more money, and fill our lives
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 1: with superficial peace. Remind us that where our treasure is,

  Speaker 1: have true joy, the joy that comes from the fruit
• 1:45:59
  Speaker 1: of your spirit. Please, Lord, cover this beloved child with

  Speaker 1: moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 1: in and steal. For where your treasure is there, your
• 1:46:55
  Speaker 1: heart will be. Also was the Reverend Billy Graham, who
• 1:47:01
  Speaker 1: once wrote, in the midst of sorrow and trouble, this
• 1:47:07
  Speaker 1: life has many blessings and enjoyments which have come from
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 1: the hand of God. Even our capacity for love is
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 1: a gift from God. We show our gratitude by giving
• 1:47:19
  Speaker 1: back to him a part of that which He has
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 1: given to us. Blessings, enjoyment, and even our capacity for
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 1: love are God's gifts to us. His gifts are so lavish,
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 1: there is plenty to share. We can give back to him,
• 1:47:39
  Speaker 1: and we can pass the blessing on to others. From
• 1:47:44
  Speaker 1: his overflow of love, you extend that love to others.
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 1: From his extraordinary peace, you can display that peace in
• 1:47:55
  Speaker 1: your home and workplace. From his abundant joy, you can
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 1: radiate joy to everyone around you. These are the beautiful
• 1:48:05
  Speaker 1: treasures you build in heaven. Feel joy in the abundance
• 1:48:09
  Speaker 1: of your heavenly treasures. Now, there's an old song titled
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 1: There's a Treasure in Heaven. A portion of the lyrics
• 1:48:21
  Speaker 1: go like this, There's a treasure in heaven, faithfully kept
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 1: in God's care. Bridges beyond measure, silver and gold can't compare.
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 1: Saints will be there to join us in a joyful reunion.
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 1: We'll see there's a treasure in heaven waiting there for me.
• 1:48:47
  Speaker 1: Holy God, creator of heaven and earth, please cover this
• 1:48:52
  Speaker 1: beloved child with peace. Lead them from one pleasant dream
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 1: to another. Dreams of heaven treasures. Overflow them with your
• 1:49:03
  Speaker 1: loving kindness, your goodness, and your faithful provision. For in
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 1: you we have everything we need. Bless this listener, Lord,
• 1:49:14
  Speaker 1: bless them, Keep them and guard them. Show them the
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 1: abundant blessings found in you. Whisper the truth in their ear,
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 1: and say to them, this is the way you should go.
• 1:49:29
  Speaker 1: We trust you, Lord, above all earthly gain. We want
• 1:49:34
  Speaker 1: to build beautiful treasures in heaven. We want our lives
• 1:49:38
  Speaker 1: to fill heavenly storehouses with overflowing treasures of love, joy, goodness,
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 1: and kindness. For your word says against such things, there
• 1:49:50
  Speaker 1: is no law. We love you, Lord. We look to
• 1:49:54
  Speaker 1: you to provide just what we need for life and
• 1:49:57
  Speaker 1: for eternity. Thank you, We praise you for being our
• 1:50:02
  Speaker 1: ultimate treasure in heaven, our light, and our salvation. It
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 1: is in the precious name of Jesus, I pray Amen.
• 1:50:15
  Speaker 1: When you think of what it means to store up
• 1:50:17
  Speaker 1: treasure in heaven, it might feel like an elusive thought,
• 1:50:23
  Speaker 1: something that is distant and out of reach. Yet storing
• 1:50:27
  Speaker 1: up treasure on earth is something most of us strive
• 1:50:30
  Speaker 1: for and spend years of our life trying to achieve. However,
• 1:50:36
  Speaker 1: the pressures of building earthly treasures can become overwhelming. We
• 1:50:41
  Speaker 1: feel pressure to make more money, get a better job,
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 1: and build notable lives. Worries about our jobs, finances, and
• 1:50:50
  Speaker 1: the future try to consume us. That's why we need
• 1:50:55
  Speaker 1: to hear the promises of God every day and receive
• 1:51:00
  Speaker 1: his direction. We need to turn our affections to what
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 1: it means to store up treasure in heaven. This will
• 1:51:09
  Speaker 1: be our focus tonight, storing up treasures in heaven as
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 1: we hear encouraging words from the scriptures and receive comfort
• 1:51:17
  Speaker 1: in knowing that storing up treasure in heaven far surpasses
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 1: our bank accounts on Earth. Rest on that statement for
• 1:51:25
  Speaker 1: a moment, storing up treasure in Heaven far surpasses our
• 1:51:30
  Speaker 1: bank accounts on Earth. Before we begin our Bible meditation,
• 1:51:37
  Speaker 1: please remove any distractions, get comfortable, pull the soft covers
• 1:51:46
  Speaker 1: around you, and simply rest. Allow your breathing to become
• 1:51:54
  Speaker 1: soft and steady. Start with a deep breath in and
• 1:52:00
  Speaker 1: lowly exhale. Fill your breath fall into a steady cadence
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 1: of peace. Let's pray. Dear God, we invite you here
• 1:52:13
  Speaker 1: tonight to fill the room with your presence. We do
• 1:52:18
  Speaker 1: not take this invitation lightly, Lord, but instead we humble
• 1:52:22
  Speaker 1: ourselves as you inhabit this room. Without you, Oh Lord,
• 1:52:28
  Speaker 1: we are empty. No amount of money, resources, talent, or
• 1:52:33
  Speaker 1: treasure can fill us up. We are nothing without you. Please, Lord,

  Speaker 1: leads you to build up treasures in heaven, treasures of love, joy, goodness, kindness,

  Speaker 1: and peace. For these holy treasures bring us the deepest contentment.
